Upcoming events:

Michael welcomes back brothers Jack and Page of The Cactus Blossoms for a set of live music, hopefully including a few songs from their upcoming release "Easy Way," due out March 1st. You may remember their 2016 release "You're Dreaming" was Michael's album of the year.

All of this author's works should be removed from Amazon."

- great songs - sung (& played) like hell !
- Cactus Blossoms are great (many try the Everlystylee - but who else succeeds like this? - not to reduce them to just that: they succeed because they are themselves).
